Sara Rue & Husband Expecting Baby No. 1!

Congratulations to actress Sara Rue and her husband Kevin Price! The couple are expecting their first child “early next year.”

Sharing the big baby news with US at this week’s ABC’s fall preview party in Beverly Hills, California, the 33-year-old mom-to-be revealed that they don’t know the baby’s gender… yet.

“We haven’t yet, but I think we will find out. I’m way too much of a planner,” Sara says. “I’ve been spending way too much time on Pinterest and Etsy to not find out, you know?”

Boy or girl, the Malibu Country star and her husband of just over a year are busy working on picking out the perfect name for their baby on the way: “We have names for boys and girls. We had a girl’s name that we really loved, then one of my friends had a baby and named her that name . . . so now we’re back to the drawing board. I did say, ‘I know it’s totally irrational, but I hate her right now!” But then that went away very quickly.”

As for those pregnancy cravings, Sara says that she’s trying to keep them in check.

“I’m just really trying to listen to my body. I know this is weird, but I literally had these two giant glasses of milk and I was like, ‘OK, I guess I needed calcium.’ So when I want ice cream, I need to realize, ‘No, I probably need milk,’ and not go too crazy.”
